I had the rare opportunity (for me) to be on stage with Mary Sanderfer, who finished her Ph. D. this summer. Rare for me actually means it was the first time and may even be my last. Usually it's the chair of the dissertation who hoods the student. (Because of my non-tenure position, i will never chair a dissertation -- which I don't mind!) Or one of the committee members. But I was neither. I have, however been an informal mentor.
Mary asked me a little over a week ago. And I said yes.
I'm glad I did. The experience was fun. As I took pictures, I realized how few I take of students and work. Yet I spend more time there than anywhere else.
So, thank you Mary, for the gift of this experience.
A miracle today,
Suzan
